The Development of Brain-Based Learning Model Based on Reciprocal Teaching (BBL-RT) for Learning Biology in High School

Abstract

One of the learning models which supported the students to be active is BBL-RT learning model. This research was intended to obtain a valid, practical and effective BBL-RT learning model. The type of this research was R&D and its research model was ADDIE (Analyze, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation). Analyze stage: analyzing the problem to develop the learning model. Design stage: making the instruments of learning and research. Development stage: conducting the validation and smallscale

testing. Implementation stage: conducting the class-scale testing. Evaluation stage: drawing a conclusion of BBL-RT learning model which was proven to be valid, effective and practical to be used by teachers. The mean result obtained from the learning instrument validation was 91, under “very valid” category. The high value obtained from normalized gain was 0.80. The mean results on the percentage of students’ and teachers’ responses were categorized into “excellent” in which the teachers’ responses was as much as 97% and the students’ was 86%. It can be concluded that BBL-RT learning model was valid, effective and practical.
